Sandra<\/a> dreams of using wings to fly up to the stars. She created a frame and used the Butterfly Stamp Sets Perspective<\/a> and Papillon<\/a>. The Transparent Wings<\/a>,  Adornments Stars<\/a> and Arrows<\/a> fit in perfectly with the Fossilized Amber<\/a> Embossing Glaze <\/a>.

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a scrapbooking page featuring a little star. She used the Darkroom Door Starry Night background stamp<\/a> together with Ranger’s Flurries embossing powder<\/a>. The background was then misted with Distress Spray Stains<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheiron<\/a> created a Tim Holtz Idea-ology Vignette Shrine<\/a> this week using an Alcohol Ink<\/a> Background that looks like a starry sky. She added stars cut from the Sizzix Swirling Stars<\/a> die cut from glitter paper. To finish her Shrine, she used Number Blocks<\/a>, a Baseboard Doll<\/a>, Label Tape<\/a> and some Clippings<\/a> stickers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created a card dedicated to all the kids who are being little stars coping with the lockdown restrictions despite having to get used to an entirely different daily routine and missing their friends and extended families. She used Tim Holtz Speckled Egg<\/a> and Tattered Rose<\/a> Distress Oxide Sprays, Stampers Anonymous Plaid<\/a>, Falling Stars<\/a> Layering Stencils and Floral Mini Layering Stencil <\/a>from Set 25 with Distress Crackle Texture Paste<\/a> and Distress Embossing Glazes<\/a> for the background and added an Idea-ology Baseboard Doll<\/a>, Small Talk Stickers<\/a> and Simon Says Stamp CZ Designs Miss You<\/a> die cut for the sentiment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> made a soft grey tag using Tim Holtz Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide<\/a> with silver stars made with Tim Holtz Hocus Pocus stencil<\/a> and Brutus Monroe Sterling Sparkle<\/a> embossing powder. The lovely ballet girl is from Visible Image Born to Perform<\/a> stamp set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> was inspired by the recent SpaceX Dragon flight to create a graduation card. She used Simon Says Stamp’s Space Journey dies<\/a>, Stamperia Cosmos paper<\/a> and Daniel Smith watercolors like Sodalite Genuine<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps Eclectic Adverts<\/a> on the background and embellished the tag with Darice Gold Star Sequins<\/a> and Prima Marketing Hardware Accents Finnabair Mechanicals<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sandra<\/a> made a red and blue card using the Stars stencil<\/a> with Texture Paste<\/a>, on top of a collaged background using Typeset Collage Paper<\/a>, Washi Tape<\/a> and scraps of paper, and gave it color with Liquid Acrylics Deep Turquoise<\/a>, Carmine<\/a>, Infusions In The Navy<\/a>, Frankly Scarlet<\/a> and Nuvo Shimmer Powder Catherine Wheel<\/a>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> had incredible fun with Alcohol Inks!<\/a> She altered this pringles cap to be the base for the queen of stars…one of her favorite paper dolls! She also used Tim Holtz Clippings<\/a> to add sentiments and star dies<\/a> to decorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
